Thought For The Day - What sky are you living under?

Posted on 4:00 AM by Unknown
Silver is talking to his 18 year old daughter, Casey, whom he hasn't seen much of since his divorce from Denise when Casey was about 9.

"What would you like to do today? he says"
She gives him a funny look. "What are my options?"
"Sky's the limit."
She considers for a moment. "Brunch?"
"I say the sky's the limit and all you can come up with is brunch?"
"I'm not sure we live under the same sky."

Jonothan Tropper, One Last Thing Before I Go, p. 136

Editor's note: Whether we are aware of it or not we are all living under the same sky, but most of us live under the illusion that our skies are separate unless you are a member of the minority who are enlightened. If you are enlightened you know different that we are all for one and should be one for all. Would that we all understood that we are all in this thing called Life together and when everyone loves everyone all the time we will have achieved the Kingdom here on earth as it is in heaven.

There are few people around the world who know this and practice this awareness. Be on the look out for them. There a few in Brockport. I have met them. It is an awesome experience to be in their presence and communicate with them. Maybe it will happen for you One Fine Day.
